COMMENTS
The initial terms coincide with those of A170744, although the two sequences are eventually different.
First disagreement at index 24: a(24) = 1389308100885712629634459867545300, A170744(24) = 1389308100885712629634459867545600. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 20 2011
Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
